Tornadoes

A tornado warning is worse. It means that a tornado has been detected or the threat of one is imminent. A tornado watch means the overall conditions are favorable to form in a general area.

"Tornado Alley" in the US records more tornadoes than anywhere else on earth. The core extends from northern Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas, into Nebraska.

A tornado cannot "hit" a hurricane as they operate on entirely different scales. A hurricane is its own large-scale storm system while a tornado is a small-scale vortex that occurs within a storm system. In fact, it is not uncommon for hurricanes to produce tornadoes.

if you have a basement you may be safe in there or in a underground shelter would also keep you safe from the violent storm

You cannot prevent all occurrences of "fire tornadoes," more properly called firewhirls. Firewhirls are the result of large, intense fires, usually wildfires. Most wildfires are started by humans, often as a result of carelessness with campfires, cigarettes, or fireworks. You can play your part by properly dowsing campfires, properly disposing of cigarette butts (or better yet, not smoking), and not setting off fireworks near dry vegetation.

The largest tornado on record actually occurred in 2004, hitting the town of Hallam, Nebraska. A major tornado outbreak occurred in the southern U.S. in 1932, primarily affecting Alabama and Georgia, but none of the tornadoes were noted for record or near record size.

Most of Oklahoma except part of the panhandle is in Tornado Alley along with large portions of 4 other states.

In terms of wind speed, tornado and hurricane winds usually fall into the same range. Tornadoes are capable of producing stronger winds than hurricanes are, however. In terms of traveling speed, tornadoes generally move faster but, again, there is a good deal of overlap.

Tornadoes do not have names, but they are sometimes referred to by where they hit. Two significant tornadoes that hit places beginning with "R" are the Regina, Saskatchewan tornado of 1912 and the Rochester, Minnesota tornado of 1883. A less significant but more recent deadly tornado was the Raleigh, North Carolina tornado of 2011.

Sometimes when a tornado gains strength it starts spinning too rapidly for wind moving into the tornado to reach the center. The center becomes a relatively calm area similar to the eye of a hurricane where air sinks instead of rises. When the sinking air reaches the ground it spreads out and collides with the air flowing into the tornado. Interactions between the colliding air currents gives rise to multiple vortices within the tornado.

Nothing at all.

There is no such thing as a "space tornado". Tornadoes are whirling AIR masses, and there's no air in space.

But if you are referering to a wormhole or a black hole then the Earth would probably get sent through the wormhole to the phonomenom's destination.

None. There were no tornadoes anywhere in Alaska in 2013, and hurricanes simply cannot hit there.

If you meant Rogers, Arkansas (AR) there were no recorded tornadoes there in Rogers. Arkansas is too far inland to get hurricanes.

Both a tornado and a blizzard are dangerous storms with powerful winds.

The primary source of energy for weather on Earth, including rain, hurricanes, and tornadoes, is the sun. The sun's energy drives the Earth's weather by heating the atmosphere, creating temperature differences that lead to atmospheric circulation and various weather patterns. This process of energy transfer through radiation, conduction, and convection ultimately powers the formation of precipitation and severe weather events like hurricanes and tornadoes.

The last tornado to hit the United States as of May 2014 was on April 28th. The tornado hit residents living in the state of Kansas.

Tornadoes generally don't have a spiral shape. But the winds in and near a tornado always move in a spiral pattern.

Both are violent, rotating storms but other than that they are quite different.

Key words for tornadoes include eye, barometric pressure, funnel cloud and forecast. Additional key words include supercell, tornado alley, tornado watch, tornado warning, vortex and counterclockwise.

When conditions are favorable for tornadoes a tornado watch is issued. However the criteria for a hurricane watch are different. A hurricane watch is issued of an existing storm is threatening an area and hurricane conditions are possible within 48 hours.

Yes. Children and infants have been injured and killed by tornadoes. When a tornado strikes it does not discriminate.

All are forms of potentially dangerous weather.
